I think a lot of the people who write about me think that if they had to write fewer interviews then they would transcribe their life-story and it would be a big success. Or should be.

If people want to really know what's up with me then they can read one of my interviews.

I write a lot about myself.

I was fortunate that I was at newspapers for eight years, where I wrote at least five or six stories every week. You get used to interviewing lots of different people about a lot of different things. And they aren't things you know about until you do the story.

Look, I don't have a Facebook page because I have little interest in hearing myself talk about myself any further than I already do in interviews or putting any more about myself online than there already is. But if I wasn't in this position, I'm sure I would use it every day.

I didn't know you could write about yourself. Nobody ever told me about this.

All I do is give interviews and spend time being photographed.

I find that talking about myself is often the most boring thing in the world. Sixty per cent of interviews I find mechanical.

There are times in my career where I can see it would be helped by having a bit more of a profile, but it's not like I refuse to do interviews, no, not at all.
